Donation Matching

We want to make your charitable contribution go even further! Small Dog customers who purchase via our website have the opportunity to donate up to $200 to several different “pet charities” selected by our Charitable Giving Committee. We will match your contribution, doubling the gift to your selected charity. (The maximum matching amount is $200 and we will match donations up to our set annual level of charitable giving.)
